Month: December 2001

Hope you’re having a good Christmas. The malls are nuts out there so if you need to shop, don’t. Congrats to Blaine who yesterday correctly identified the quote from my news post as being from “Army of Darkness” (or Evil Dead 3 if that’s your thing). Blaine receives a complimentary visit to this website and…

Thought I would regale you with what’s up with blueprint, how all the tools fit together and the process for creating objects with the new version. First off, version 2.0 will *not* support multi-tiles. I know, groan, moan and all that. I’m sure you’re about to compose that lovely hate mail and say “What’s the…

Hey guys. Had the last couple of days off programming and getting things ready for the final release. Everything looks great and is working quite well. A few hiccups like any software but hey, I’m a one man band so you have to cut me a little slack. Stay tuned!

I finally did so I’m off for the next couple of days to lounge around in my underoos and program the day away (with the occasional frag in Unreal Tournament thrown in for good measure).

There are still some outstanding issues (nothing major though) so after this release we’ll be testing the release candidates. Things are on track for a release to you shortly and me spending dozens of hours writing new tutorials for…

Welcome to Thursdays somewhat non-Sims related post. I was off surfing on Slashdot tonight and found a thread about the history of Usenet (you know, newsgroups) and how they had a page outlining some of the historic moments in Usenet postings. Everything from the first mention of Microsoft to AIDS and the first internet worm….
